Mill in Clintstown, County Kilkenny

What is recorded here

The Mill in Clintstown has bars on its ground-floor windows and a boarded door set off-centre. It has the look of a place where the flour was doing time and the door was quietly distancing itself from the whole affair.

Detached two- or three-bay three-storey mill, extant 1839, on a rectangular plan probably originally two- or three-bay two-storey on a rectangular plan. Hipped slate roof with clay ridge tiles, and no rainwater goods surviving on slate flagged eaves. Part repointed coursed rubble limestone battered walls with tooled cut- or hammered limestone flush quoins to corners. Square-headed off-central door opening with timber boarded door. Square-headed window openings with timber lintels framing wrought iron bars (ground floor) or remains of timber fittings (upper floors). Set in shared grounds

A mill representing an integral component of the industrial heritage of County Kilkenny.
